Celebrating a Horses Life/ Equestrian Family Portraits/ Palm Coast, Florida

I’ve had the opportunity to Photograph Ilana several times. I’ve photographed her with her horses, her friends horses, at my photography workshops, with her dogs, when photographing horse tack for my commercial work, and just for fun! But when Ilana contacted me about capturing images of her horse Ruler in his final days of life…. my heart just sunk for her. One of the hardest decisions we have to make as horse owners is when we have to make end of life decisions for the horses we love. Ilana wanted to capture Ruler doing the things that they enjoyed doing together so we chose a lake side location where they could splash and play together one last time. In addition, Ilana wanted to have a full family portrait while Ruler was still with them. I will always feel honored to capture the connection between horses and their humans… but especially honored when equestrians choose to work with Fast Horse Photography for their end of life sessions for their horses. Hugs to anyone who has had to say goodbye to a horse.

Donna and Comet/ Equine Photography/ Florida Agricultural Museum

As a photographer you can plan out a million sunrises and wake up one morning to something completely different! When mother nature gives you crazy fog… you roll with it! Donna and Comet were good sports for their equine and equestrian photography session held at The Florida Agricultural Museum in Palm Coast, Florida. Here are a few images from their equine and equestrian photography session!

Horses on the Beach Photography Event by Fast Horse Photography and Phyllis Burchett Photo

Do you love sunshine and ocean breezes?

Is it your heart’s desire to break out of your standard photography style and try something new and different? Or maybe learn a new technique or approach to add to your current portfolio?

Do you dream about photographing horses on the beach? The simple thought of the occasion makes you squeal with excitement...

Because the beach is quite possibly the most epic location of all to capture the collision of horse, rider, and scenery so profound, it takes your breath away.

St Johns County Horse Council/ Holiday Fun Show/ Hastings, Florida

I don’t photograph a ton of equine events these days, but when I do it’s usually for our local horse council. I love spending time at the St Johns County Horse Council events and specifically the fun shows! If egg and spoon is a class on the show bill, then I want to be there! The goofier the holiday costume the better. Here are just a few images from the December 5th event. Check out all the cute Santa hats and reindeer antlers rounding barrels!
